The new G-Force iQ series, introduced by Safetech , offers high speed, precision and smooth motion, available in a 65, 150 and 300kg capacity units.
This G-Force iQ series combines performance and flexibility with durability. New features include 360 degree swivel, automatic load read out and enhanced interactivity with other devices.
New to the Q series
The combination of collector and air swivel prevents damage to coil; the optional air coil float mode option for ultimate load control comes with weight readout functionality
- Choice of slide handle or control pendant
- Add on push button air valves and electric switches for control of end tooling
- Standard input / output capability optional expandable auxiliary I/O
- Capable of operating two G-Force units with one handle or one G-Force from two different handle locations
The features of the G-Force iQ series:
- Available in 75kg, 150kg, and 300kg capacity G360 collector and swivel assembly
- Remote mount auxiliary I/O block mounted below the handle
- Auxiliary 24 volt power supply to drive input/outputs and other sensors
- Virtual limits and points of speed reduction is standard
- Capable of operating two units with one handle
- Capable of operating one unit with two different handle locations
- Controls for easy upgrades
- Handle configurations are easily changeable in the field
- Standard coil cords with in-field add-on air hose
- Slide and pendant handles are interchangeable between the Q and iQ
- More processing power for smooth operation and improved performance
- Improved float mode allows for better control of the load LCD on hand controller communicates more information like system status and diagnostics
- Seamless operator present function by means of a photo sensor
- Ergonomic slide handle design
- Higher environmental ratings (more tolerant to dust and liquid)
- Electric/air collector for eliminating coil cord damage
- Pendant handle available
- Optional standard auxiliary air valves and electric switches for hand controller make tooling integration easier
- Input/output functionality makes the product suitable for more applications out of the box
- Ease of installation for reduced installation time and costs
- Readily accepted by operators because its easy to use and enhances their job performance
- Rapid return on investment through increased productivity and reduced product damage
- Decreases risk of operator injury creating a safer work environment
The G-Force iQ series gives customers benefits like:
- PinPoint Precision
- The G-ForceTM offers unparalleled precision and speeds from less than 1/3 mpm up to 25 mpm, giving the control needed to finesse fragile parts
- High speed. With speeds exceeding 25 mpm, the G-ForceTM travels up to 4 times faster than traditional high end lifting devices currently on the market
- Anti-recoil technology A G-Force safety feature. Unlike systems with centrifugal brakes (i.e. air balancers), the G-ForceTM does not move when there is a sudden change of load
- Endless customisation opportunities. The G-Force Q series features four digital inputs and outputs. The external I/O can be customised. They can be used independently or integrated with end tooling to make dumb tooling
- Protects fragile parts with virtual limits. The G-Force iQ can be easily taught to stop or reduce speed when it reaches a specific point in its lifting range
